Bristol City Form


Bristol City just finished inside the Championship play-off places, ending in sixth position. The Robins were unbeaten in 12 of their final 15 games of the season.

City put together a four-match unbeaten run, including three wins at home, before a late season dip in form. Liam Manning’s side were winless in their final three matches and lost back-to-back games at Luton 3-1 and Leeds 4-0.

The Robins secured their place in the top six with a 2-2 home draw against Preston on the final day. Ross McCrorie’s second-half brace helped City come back from two goals down to notch a crucial point. 

Bristol City Injuries


Defender Luke McNally and midfielder Mark Sykes are unavailable due to injury. 

Sheffield United Form 


Chris Wilder’s Sheffield United were in automatic promotion contention for most of the Championship season. A three-match losing streak in early April effectively ended the Blades’ chances of a top-two finish.

Sheffield United improved in the final four matches to finish third on 90 points. 2-0 Wins against Cardiff and Stoke came either side of a 2-1 defeat at Burnley.

The Blades drew 1-1 at home against Blackburn in their last fixture of the season. United had 18-7 shots, conceded after half time and Anel Ahmedhodzic levelled with 30 minutes remaining. 

Sheffield United Injuries


Defensive pair Femi Seriki and Harry Souttar are set to miss out through injury.

Midfielder Oliver Arblaster is also injured and won’t make the squad.

Verdict

Bristol City and Sheffield United will want to keep things tight in the first leg and a draw has good value. These sides often hit the net and BTTS also looks like a good pick at Ashton Gate.
